87 Coupe GT work



Replaced front rotors and pads on the Coupe.  First time since I had it (over
5 years and 60k miles).  Guess what?  In addition to improved braking, the
"wheel balancing problem" I've fought since I owned it is gone.  Those vented
rotors were scaly with rust.

While I was in there I noticed my strut dust boots are toast, the struts are
weaping, and the strut bearings are very loose.  Even still the struts seem
to do their damping thing pretty well after 110k miles.  As soon as I get
moved, I'm going for the complete front end rebuild.
